lyrics

A man on a mission
To burn all his bridges
He crosses every fatal line
and wades into the river
He cast aside a lover
To stand beside another
His lips are burning brighter
While his whole world's going under

Well to put the past behind you
It can seem the most impossible thing
I have tried it, time and time again
But we never change
She's excited to see you
Every time you get off the plane
Lies, he tries to deny it all the way
But we never change

He's working on a letter
Of how he's changed for the better
You're screaming at the screen
'Cause he ain't been home in forever
Your hand upon his heart
We're right back to the start
It's everything you thought it was
and miles and miles apart

Well to put the past behind you
It can seem the most impossible thing
I have tried it, time and time again
But we never change
She's excited to see you
Every time you get off the plane
Lies, he tries to deny it all the way
But we never change

Oh, no one ever wants to be alone...
Well look me in the eye, tell me what's going on
And I tried my best to get on your bad side
Well look me in the eye, tell me what's going on

Written by Timothy Nelson. Taken from the album 'Words Like Young' (2016)
